regardless mr. armstrong, it's happening, and i'm pretty sure notch isn't going to let just anyone dev it, who knows, maybe uber'll pick it up ?
This is quite mind boggling and makes no sense at all. If you like Minecraft, why don't you play it? It's not like a 360 version would have any upsides.
This. One of the best things in Minecraft are mods and texture packs and you can't have those on the Xbox. What about multiplayer? There will be no Bukkit for the Xbox, I even doubt there will be multiplayer at all. Or you get a host-client system that will lag like hell. The only thing that could make me play Minecraft on the Xbox is when Uber makes it and gets free reign over the content. I don't think Scathis would need 3 month to think up half a dozen new blocks and Eka could probably make the textures for the whole game in 256x256 in a day or two. Uber, can't you send AZO to ninja Notch and take over?
Because my goddamn computer sucks. Not all of us can shell out money when new updates come out, Mr. PC player. Some of us don't have jobs. Some of us unfortunately still live with our parents. And are 13. Goddammit. Seriously, my computer can barely play TFC and CS 1.6.
About the whole it won't get updates thing, MS caters to big titles, i'm pretty sure they're going to work with minecraft and it's 100mb DLC's as much as possible, that's why if uber put out an update (especially now when there's no huge updates on the horizon) it'd get out there pretty quick
Mods are very doable on the 360 (borderlands) Trust me, microsoft is really lucky to pick up minecraft, i don't think they'll let us down, they're nowhere near as bad as uber and valve make them out to be
This video hits the concernes for Minecraft on XBox360 right on the head. Btw this is a guy I follow and watch on Justin.tv and Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC0bNSooxz0
